VizieR Online Data Catalog: Cosmic evolution of long gamma-ray burst luminosity (Deng+, 2016)

Our sample includes only the redshift-known long GRBs observed with Swift/BAT from 2005 January to 2015 April. Low-luminosity GRBs are excluded since they may belong to another distinct population (e.g., Chapman et al. 2007MNRAS.382L..21C; Liang et al. 2007ApJ...662.1111L; Lu et al. 2010ApJ...725.1965L). Although the durations of some GRBs, such as GRB 050724 and GRB 060614, are larger than 2s, we do not include them in our sample since they may be from merger of compact stars (Berger et al. 2005Natur.438..988B; Gehrels et al. 2006Natur.444.1044G; Zhang et al. 2007ApJ...655L..25Z, 2009ApJ...703.1696Z). The afterglow and host galaxy observations of the high-z SGRB GRB 090426 (T₉₀=1.2s) show that it may be from the collapse of a massive star (Antonelli et al. 2009A&A...507L..45A; Xin et al. 2011MNRAS.410...27X). We thus include this GRB in our sample. We finally obtain a sample of 258 GRBs. They are reported in Table 1.
